I'm so tired of Nigerian Yahoo boys ruining things for Nigerians who are genuinely trying to live honest lives.
It's actually embarrassing at this point.
And before anyone thinks this doesn't affect me personally, it does.
Even with my dual citizenship, the moment people know I'm Nigerian, that stereotype can follow me into business dealings outside America.
l've had to over-explain myself, prove my credibility and work harder than I should have to just to earn people's trust.
That’s why I’m building Joinbash 🚀
An app changing how group trips are planned.
Set payment deadlines, auto-drop no-shows, plan itineraries, meet new travel buddies, and enjoy built-in ID verification for safety.
100% free. Launching soon. 🌍✈️

My name is Michael and I am a #DevOps Engineer with a strong #AWS background.
People often ask me about the best way to break into a Cloud/DevOps career.
Here is my answer: the most important concept is understanding the difference between ACTIVE and PASSIVE LEARNING

The great thing about completing a project like this one https://t.co/Qrb7dPhy9U
is that you will get that real life experience from it. Also, projects have a way of bringing together everything you’ve learned passively.
You can never go wrong with projects‼️
On the other hand, PASSIVE learning is lecture and presentation heavy. It involves a lot of note taking 📝 , watching videos or listening to a live instructor. Passive learning is great but can result in high levels of disengagement and low mental stimulation.
When it comes to breaking into cloud engineering or any other technical career, you need high level of active learning (90%) and some passive instruction (10%).Once you’ve completed the fundamentals of cloud computing, you need to get on projects!
5. Start thinking about your goals for next year
While Reflecting on this year, start thinking about 2023. Use the LAW OF ATTRACTION by writing down your goals in PRESENT TENSE and MANIFESTING it daily.
Say things like:
I have my dream job in 2023
I own my dream home in 2023
4. Schedule some time for self care
Hello Mr & Mrs Workaholic 👋🏾👋🏾
Take that PTO!It’s part of your paycheck. Book that vacay.
You deserve it ‼️
Taking time off work helps reverse burnout and leads to greater productivity.
3. Complete that udemy course you enrolled in
We are all on this table. I also have courses on #udemy I need to complete🤦🏾♂️.
Scheduling a daily learning time really helps to stay consistent.
Students who make learning a habit are more likely to reach their goals‼️
